HARRY, in his thirties, is a man that everybody knows naturally joyful and very sociable. He lives alone in a small two-bedroom apartment in Purfleet, UK. But since he's lost his job and his girlfriend's left him two months ago, everything has collapsed around him. However, in the eyes of the others, even to his best friend THOMAS, he remains the funny Harry, playful and always ready for new adventures.

On this day: Harry is underwater, eyes closed in a bathtub full of warm and steaming water, motionless. A moment later, he wide opens his eyes and emerges as from a particularly horrible nightmare. Still in shock, he lets himself go and cries.
